Chapter 388: Bad News
The grandmother who came to report in the rain touched the tears or rain on her face, and said again with a sad expression, "Originally, Mrs. Wen also said that our grandmother was afraid that there would be about ten days before she gave birth, but at this time our grandfather had an accident, grandma she was hit, and today she saw red before night, and the child has not come down for several hours until now......"
"How so? Isn't it time for Ah Fei to be born yet? She asked the question in her heart with a shocked look on her face.
This bad news blew up so that Lin Long couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, if it weren't for the sadness on the face of the person who came to report the news, she would have thought it was a prank, just the day before yesterday she also received a letter written by Bei Mingfei, saying that she would compare with her to whose husband had a child, and the words were full of joy of waiting for childbirth, and there was nothing wrong with it.
"Our grandmother is afraid that it will not be good, she has been chanting the name of Houfu, so Mrs. asked the old slave to come overnight to invite Mrs. Hou to come over the house to see our grandmother for the last time......"
Just when Lin Long was waiting for the fetus in his womb to ripen, the news of Bei Mingfei's dystocia came.
Lin Long pushed him coquettishly, even she had to hide it, damn it! couldn't help but slap him twice, and Ye Xuyao grabbed her hands and pressed them on the bed, she wanted to do something, but when she saw her belly becoming more and more swollen, there was an imperceptible worry between her eyebrows, and all the charming thoughts were thrown out of the clouds.
"What do you say?" Ye Xuyao didn't answer the rhetorical question, and looked at his wife with raised eyebrows.
Lin Long later asked Ye Xuyao, "This is the follow-up you said?" β
Later, Qin Jiaorong couldn't bear the loneliness and ran away with a pilgrim, so that even Qin Chen was desperate for her, and never mentioned this daughter again in her lifetime, of course, this is a later story.
Let her daughter die, Qin Chen was reluctant, and finally had to choose the second way, Qin Jiaorong cut her hair on a cloudy day, and the matter came to an end.
Qin Jiaorong's face changed and changed, and finally she hung down her clenched fists weakly.
"Does it matter if you lose or not? Your reputation now stinks like a stinking gutter. Qin Lei said disdainfully.
Qin Jiaorong looked at her father in disbelief, did this heartless word really come from her father's mouth? "Why don't you believe me, they rescued me in time, and I didn't lose my virginity......"
Qin Chen felt sorry for his daughter, and got up to beat his son, but was stopped by Qin Yongyi, "What are you doing?" She carried the sins she did by herself, her brother was not wrong, our Qin family does not have such a daughter. β
"I don't have a sister like that." Qin Lei shouted loudly.
"Brother Lei, how did you speak? This is your sister-in-law......" Qin Chen angrily scolded his son.
Qin Lei's face turned around with a stupid face, and he looked at his sister in his mother's arms with a calm face, "If I were you, I wouldn't drag down my family anymore and die quickly." β
After finishing speaking, he also got up and brushed his sleeves away, he really didn't have any eyes to look at the chaos in the second room, and it was extremely embarrassing for such a thing to happen.
Viscount Qin, the patriarch of the Qin family, who had been sitting on the main seat and had not spoken, said, "Two roads, leaving home or committing suicide, you can do it in the second room." β
Qin Yongyi's face was powerless, having such a daughter was really his three lifetimes of non-cultivation.
After speaking, he took out the written letter of resignation and put it on the table, and then bowed to the father and son of the Qin family, and then turned around and left without hesitation, even Qin Lei's constant retention was useless.
"No need, you know what kind of reputation you have now, I didn't care about it at the beginning, but now the whole city knows about it, I can't afford to lose that person." The merchant said ruthlessly, arching his hand towards Qin Yongyi, "Lord Qin, you are also a man, please be considerate of the difficulties below, I can't be angry with my father." β
Qin Jiaorong looked at this husband with hatred, it was because he didn't protect himself well, otherwise how could he fall into the hands of the bandits? How can chastity be questioned at this time? Gritted his teeth and said, "I can let Mama test her virginity ......"
"I have made up my mind, I can't bring such an immoral wife back to my hometown, I don't want a dowry or anything, the dowry will be returned, and this wife must be divorced." The merchant was also resolute.
Qin Chen's attitude was quite resolute, "I don't agree to divorce my wife......"
Qin Jiaorong trembled and leaned on her mother's arms, and now she knew what it meant to be speechless, and the thieves did not trample on her, but no matter what she said, the newlywed husband and father and others just didn't believe it.
As Ye Zhong said, the Qin family was in a mess because of this, mainly because the Qin Chen family stood on the opposite side of the Qin family for the sake of their daughter.
Ye Zhong said this very coldly.
"Isn't it? Qin Jiaorong is done in this life, and there are only two ways left for her, either to become a monk or commit suicide, and there is absolutely no third way to go. β
"I'm afraid that the Qin family has exploded now." She said.
She immediately thought of her husband, there was definitely his shadow behind this matter, but she had always been short-sighted, so no matter how miserable Qin Jiaorong was, she didn't sympathize.
reported to the government, this matter will naturally make a big fuss, if Qin Jiaorong is dead, it is okay, at least it will not make people criticize her reputation, but she survived, this loss of festival is a big deal, other people's after-dinner conversations are just enough, and the husband's family and mother's family will absolutely not tolerate it.
Lin Long thought of this matter for the first time, it was not as simple as it seemed, how could he report it to the yamen as soon as such a thing happened? It must be looking for the Qin family for help, and the Qin family still has a title.
"It's also appropriate for her to have this retribution, she is restless in itself, God will not like it, she designed Brother Rong'er, this time it's good, send yourself to the mouth of the bandit, this is not a meat bun to beat the dog, there is no return, this taste is what she tastes at this time." Ye Zhong's family didn't sympathize with Qin Jiaorong at all, so he said it quite harshly.
Ye's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were dumbfounded again, but they didn't expect this Qin Jiaorong to encounter the most feared thing in her daughter's life.
Divorce wife?
"Hasn't it been raining too much lately, and there have been disasters everywhere? This thief also wants to eat, so naturally he haunts more frequently, it should be said that this Qin Jiaorong is not at ease, so God will not bless her. Ye Manzi said, "As we all know, this thief is a very vicious person, and he has such a beautiful girl, although I think Qin Jiaorong looks average, but she is a woman, and the consequences can be imagined, so her newlywed husband didn't want to cuckold after desperately saving Qin Jiaorong with the servants, and argued to divorce her on the grounds that she lost her virginity." β
Ye Zhong and Lin Long both looked at each other, this answer is really terrifying, why did they meet a bandit?
Bandits?
Ye Manzi gloated at this time, "She has met a bandit." β
Ye Zhong looked at his daughter angrily, but Lin Long cooperated and said curiously, "What's wrong?" β
Ye Manzi stretched out his finger and shook it, and said with the appearance of being an expert, "Mother, sister-in-law, this Qin Jiaorong is married, and it is true that she went out of Beijing with her husband, but she is unwilling, I heard that she ran away while her husband was not paying attention, and guess what happened later?" β
"She?" Ye Zhongshi looked surprised, "Didn't she marry a businessman from other places some time ago?" Why did you come back to the capital again? This Qin family really can't believe it, if they go back on their word, can't we be bullied by the Ye family? β
"It's still my sister-in-law, and I guess it." Ye Manzi immediately resurrected with full blood, approached Lin Long with a smiling face, and told the mystery to the end.
Lin Long groaned slightly for a while, and saw that her sister-in-law was hit by her mother-in-law, so she said, "I guess it's the Qin family's cousin girl." β
"Don't be mysterious, love to talk about it, I'm not rare." Ye Zhongshi didn't have the mood and heart to guess the riddle, and there were many important family matters waiting for her to choose.
When she stopped being thirsty, she put down the teacup and exclaimed, "Guess who the hot topic is lately?" The ...... we all know."
Ye Manzi took a sip of tea, she was really thirsty on this hot day, and she didn't care about pretending to be a lady's temperament, this move naturally attracted her mother's eyes, and she just stuck out her tongue naughtily.
"By the way, sister-in-law, but what's the hot topic lately?" Lin Long was busy bringing the tea in and personally serving it to his sister-in-law.
It's a clichΓ© again, Ye Zhongshi angrily stretched out his finger and pressed his daughter's head, compared to the steady eldest daughter, this younger daughter must have come to collect debts.
"Don't do it, I will rely on you for the rest of my life." Ye Manzi smiled and coquettishly grabbed his mother's arm and shook it.
As soon as Ye Zhongshi saw this little daughter's unruly appearance, he immediately became angry, and stretched his face and said, "How many times have you said it, why can't you remember?" The daughter's family is always so undignified, who will dare to ask for it in the future? β
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were sitting and discussing the matter of production, but Ye Manzi jumped in and opened the curtain and came in, "Mother, sister-in-law, have you heard of it?" β
The whole club in Nanyuan has entered a tense atmosphere, and everything is centered on Lin Long, which makes Lin Long cry and laugh a little, but thinking that this is his mother-in-law's love for him, he feels very heartwarming.
After sending Mama Jin away, Ye Zhong placed the four stable women and the stable women he had originally arranged in the South Garden, and arranged for every two people to guard Lin Long in case the fetus moved at any time.
Mama Jin didn't say anything more, but gave some more precautions, but Ye's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law still listened very carefully and carefully.
Ye Zhong nodded hurriedly, this Mama Jin is Queen Su's most trusted servant, she can't afford to offend her, and she really cares about her daughter-in-law, where would she not appreciate it? "What Mama said is that I think too much."
"Sometimes relatives are too nervous and will affect the mother's feelings, Mrs. Ye should be relaxed." Mama Jin persuaded.
Ye Zhongshi has also given birth to four children, of course he knows what it is like to have children? It's just that she encountered dystocia when she gave birth to leaf vine seeds, and then she lost her body and never conceived again, so she was nervous about Lin Long's second child, and she also expected Lin Long to add a few more grandchildren to her, not to mention that she had to give birth to five or six. "I'm not worried about her ......"
Mama Jin smiled, "County Lord, it's normal to give birth in September. He turned his head to look at Ye Zhong's again, "Mrs. Ye doesn't need to be too nervous, I will check the pulse of the county lord, the pulse is normal, the fetus in the womb has a strong heartbeat, and the mother and child will be safe." β
Lin Long looked at her mother-in-law's nervous appearance, thought about it, and it was better to sit honestly.
Ye Zhongshi was shocked when he saw it, and hurriedly grabbed her hand and scolded, "You give me care, don't shoot the child." β
Lin Long saw his mother-in-law and Jin's grandmother, who were like great enemies, and said with a smile, "This is the second child, how can it be so dangerous?" Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, let's drink tea to moisten my throat first. In my opinion, I don't know if I will move this month? When I gave birth to Brother Ting and Brother Hui, I was more than ten months pregnant, and it was only nine months......" patted her belly indifferently, the child in her belly had been moving happily recently, and she quickly responded to her, and she couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
Childbirth is a hurdle for a woman, even if it is not the first child, there is no shortage of things to prepare.
Mama Jin personally led people over, and also brought a secret medicine to save her life in case of dystocia, and stuffed it to Ye Zhong's in one go, and also carefully told Ye Zhong's when to eat which one, Ye Zhong's wrote it down one by one.
She has been pregnant for nine months, and it should be the time of labor, so Su Ziyu sent four experienced stable women from the palace to the Xiangyang Hou Mansion as when she gave birth to twin sons last time, always ready to deliver the baby.
In June, the middle of summer, the rich families in the capital have put ice basins to cool off, and the Xiangyang Hou Mansion is no exception, at this time, Lin Long's belly is already so big that it is quite inconvenient to move.
The Ye family got the news that the Qin family had disposed of the three daughters, and they didn't say a word, and the stone in the Qin family's heart fell to the ground.
After sending away this scourge, everyone in the Qin family was also relieved, but the Qin Chen family was quite depressed, and her good daughter was married like this, and she was married so unsatisfactorily.
Due to the pressure exerted by the Ye family, the merchant did not stay in the capital on the day he married Qin Jiaorong, but hurriedly left Beijing to go to his home with the daughter of the official eunuch who was accidentally married.
The next day, Qin Jiaorong had no power to resist, and after eating the soft tendons that her brother forced to fill, she was dragged around in a daze, and she entered the sedan chair in a daze to worship heaven and earth.
Qin Chen didn't say anything more, obviously acquiescing to her husband's son's suggestion, in this way, it is estimated that her daughter will accept her fate, and she will think of helping her in the future, and the rest of her daughter's life will not be too desolate.
"Yes, that's it." Qin Yongyi immediately agreed.
Qin Jiaorong almost spit out a mouthful of old blood when she heard this.
Seeing that this father and mother were about to quarrel, Qin Lei was the first to say, "Okay, father, mother, now it's not about arguing about the concubine climbing the bed, but about Sister Rong'er Ming'er getting married, in my opinion, this matter doesn't need to be discussed, the little sister refuses to get on the sedan chair, that's easy to do, just tie it up and stuff it in." β
"Why can't you chew? Let them all listen to the juniors, how did you do it back then? Otherwise, can you raise Qin Jiaozhen, a thing that harms her sister? As soon as Qin Chen's family said this, where would he spare her husband.
was revealed, Qin Yongyi's face immediately turned red, and he couldn't pull his face down, and he said, "Chen sesame rotten grain, what kind of tongue root do you take out to chew?" β
"Don't you men like those tricks? That Qin Jiaozhen's biological mother climbed up like this? Didn't you just use these three indiscriminate tricks? I saw that you were very happy. Qin Chen is not a vegetarian either, so he immediately fought back against her husband's words.
"You still have the face to say? It's all because you spoiled her, and you learned some tricks that were indiscriminate, but this time it's good, and you've lost your reputation. Qin Yongyi pointed the finger at his wife, he hadn't taught her a lesson, and he blamed her.
Qin Jiaorong cried even louder, how could she be willing to cut her hair to become a nun despite the prosperity of the world? will say that, it's nothing more than to coerce the parents, but unfortunately, except for the mother who buys it, the father and brother are all hard-hearted.
"Sir." Qin Chen's hearing her husband's more and more outrageous it became, she couldn't help but speak.
How do you know that Qin Yongyi really said ruthlessly, "Okay, if you insist on this, then I won't persuade you anymore, tomorrow you will take a carriage out of Beijing to a nunnery far away from ......the capital to become a nun."
"I know that I am disliked by you now, so I will be my sister-in-law, and I will not hinder your eyes." Qin Jiaorong said angrily, hoping that as before, her father and brother could coax herself softly and then negotiate with the Ye family.
"Cry, what right do you have to cry?" Qin Lei's brother also scolded his sister-in-law unceremoniously, if it weren't for her, would he be able to reach such a stalemate with the Ye family? His good future was ruined on this unknown sister-in-law.
Qin Jiaorong has not been treated by her father and grandmother for the past three days since she went home, and the two people who used to love her very much now look at her with cold eyes, except for her mother, who loves her as always. Now when I heard my father's merciless words, sadness came from it, and I immediately cried out.
The Ye family's words are very clear, there is no room for change, otherwise how could he sacrifice his three daughters? It's really a loss of rice money, which can be regarded as a waste of money, otherwise these three daughters still have the value of marriage.
"Then who do you want to marry? Is it a big family? Don't look at yourself for what kind of reputation you have now? Qin Yongyi, who had been listening outside for a long time, really couldn't stand this daughter who had no self-knowledge, so he impatiently pushed open the curtain and came in, and immediately shouted loudly.
Qin Jiaorong was unmoved, she was still young, she was inevitably arrogant, and she felt that she was very wronged, but she just gently pinched the two dead and cheap seeds twice, why should she sacrifice her happiness? "Mother, don't say it, I won't marry such a family......"
"Can you compare to her? Sister Rong, people are most afraid of life, you must listen to your mother's persuasion this time, don't be stupid again, your eldest cousin is not an ordinary person's temperament, he can really do what he says, even if his mother wants to protect you, he will not be able to protect you. Qin Chen said bitterly.
When Lin Long was mentioned, her two rows of silver teeth bit hard, eager to bite a hole in Lin Long's body.
Qin Jiaorong let out a heavy "hum" from her nose with disdain: "A daughter of a broken family, and she has climbed her husband's family, doesn't she keep her husband close to other women?" β
She tried her best to choose something nice to say, just to persuade her daughter's temper.
As soon as Qin Chen's heart was weak when she heard the word Antang, after all, she didn't do it properly, so she immediately scolded her daughter, "What nonsense, can they compare with you?" My son, don't be stupid, listen to your mother's persuasion, get married quickly, as long as you leave the capital, there are still good days waiting for you behind? There is a father and mother, this merchant can't deceive your head, and when you enter the door, you will drive away the foxes around your aunt, he has a low status, and he married you, and he can't offer you? β
"Mother, I'm not married." She gritted her teeth and didn't let go, "Instead of this, I might as well learn from those two sluts and send them to the nunnery to be my sister-in-law." β
How can Qin Jiaorong be satisfied with such a husband? Even if this person has a certain family business at a young age, and his facial features are still handsome, she can't be eye-catching, don't say that she is on a par with Ye Xuyao, even if she lifts Ye Xurong's shoes, she is not worthy.
With an official eunuch like the Qin family, marrying his daughter into such a family is definitely a low marriage, and the identity of the other party is still the bottom of the business.
This person is a foreigner, he came to the capital just to do business, and he heard that the Qin family's conditions for choosing a son-in-law are from other places, but he is cheeky and comes to propose marriage, he is about five or six years older than Qin Jiaorong, and there is no wife in the family, only a few people in the room, and both parents are there.
Qin Chen's heart was broken for her daughter's marriage, and she looked at each other almost non-stop, I don't know if it was the Ye family secretly pressuring or what, no matter how she picked, she couldn't choose the right person, and in the end she could only grit her teeth and choose a business.
The three days quickly slipped away, during which Ye Xuwei, the only son of the Ye family, held a banquet on the full moon, Lin Long was bulky and did not come to congratulate him in person, but asked her husband to send a rich full moon gift, that day Ye Lao Hou was very drunk with joy, and finally did not return to the Hou Mansion, but rested in Ye Lao Liu's mansion, and was waited by Aunt Wan.
The Ye family was not disturbed by the Ye Qin clan, but it was calm, and the Ye Zhong clan and Lin Long were secretly glad that they could finally live a peaceful life for a few days.
Before leaving, she still begged to see her husband one last time, so that he could forgive her for what she had done, and said that she had really reformed herself, but her husband did not see her at all, and finally she had to leave silently.
Ye Mingsui continued to immerse himself in the gentle township, Ye Mingxi, who was in the fifth room, had little affection for this mother-in-law, and he didn't necessarily see him many times a year, not to mention that Ye Qin's family left in a hurry this time, and he didn't receive the news at all.
Ye Qin also left the Xiangyang Hou Mansion when it was pouring rain, and unlike the last time when she was forced to live in Zhuangzi, no one came to see her off this time, including her own two sons.
